Playing as only one character, however isn't the unique part about it. Skinny CJ, fat CJ, and buff CJ will always be CJ aside from minor tweaks to gameplay. All GTA's have had one protagonist at a time, including SA, and him possibly being fat, buff, etc. in appearance doeesn't change him from being that same protagonist; it's still not as unique as three different protagonists at the same time. It's different, perhaps subjectively more interesting of a mechanic than having multiple specialists with different specialties, but by itself, it doesn't amount up to being more unique.

"remember you have literally never brushed your teeth" wrong, people in medieval times had a general awareness of personal hygiene, including brushing your teeth, even for the lower classes, as toothbrushes ranged from actual traditional ones like we know them now, to simple sticks and twigs with their ends partially chewed up to use the wood fibers as brushes, and also the toothpaste recipe could vary based on social status and geographical area, the most common ones consisting in a mixture of ground up salt and spices and flowers like cloves, to freshen you breath

Also, spices? Hahahahaha, even the richest nobles in the land had to pay out the ass for spices. Rosewater maybe, but spices? You're definitely erring on the side of the very rich, not the average. In fact, people who were poor would have better teeth, as eating large amount of sugars will ruin your teeth.

Actually people in medieval times would clean there teeth by rinsing them with warm vinegar or wine and then wiping there teeth using a rough cloth to dry and get any gunk off of their teeth. This combined with the fact that only the rich could afford sugar actually meant that a lot less people had dental problems because most of what people ate back then was vegetables, bread, or meat and that generally meant that people where much healthier than now because they constantly exercised. Though they did live much shorter lives because of the constant stress of their live styles at the time.

A game with basic needs like eating, drinking, car that consume fuel and other can be nice, the only issue is that in most game you stave to death in 10 minutes and your car can only run 15 minutes on a fuel tank, if those mechanics used more realistic time scale it would be more enjoyable. Having the possibility to become fat or strong in GTA was actually fun and since you aren't forced to eat, you can't complain about being fat and loosing ability. Same for hangover, if the game forced you to get drunk I could understand how annoying it would be, but when drinking is YOUR choice, why would you complain...

RDR2's hunting minigame was pretty fun imo. How involved it was made it feel like that much more of an accomplishment. BTW u guys got it a bit wrong, it wasn't that you have to use your bow or small caliber rifle. The knife would never damage a pelt, but it's impossible to use on some animals. The actual point was to use the *correct* weapon to suit your prey. Which meant you had to prepare properly instead of just finding targets of opportunity (sometimes). And you wouldn't know what weapon to use until you've studied it, which means you had to spot it with binoculars or examine its body. This would also allow you to identify its tracks.

What of course people of Middle-ages use to brush their teeth, they use to use a “chew sticks” these were made from small ever-green twigs, and where possible twigs from aromatic trees, which would have given a more freshening breath, however, the development of the first purpose-made toothbrush dates back to around 3000BC.

while they probably didn't know this, it's also important to keep in mind that just because someone had invented it, doesn't mean that it was used in other places.

North American Natives who had maize in their diets also had bad teeth, due to the high sugar content of that food.

2 of you corrected the OP, but he said what you corrected. Anyway. I remember in Quake 2, I could carry every weapon.

There are a lot of close quarters maps, so I eventually drop the sniper for another close-med weapon, because I'm low on ammo for the first one. 5 minutes later, there's a sniping section, and now I don't have a sniper. WEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I've played many games where the skinning animation seems to take ages, and what I just saw of RDR2 looks like they decided to take that to another level.

I am an Anglophile, and would just LOVE a new generation Get Away game!! The fact it represented so much of London was sooo cool. Only thing is if they did it for current times, it won't even feel like London anymore, with all the immigrants there and their shops etc. They should do a 80s era story, like Vice City, so it would still feel authentically English.

Red Dead Redemption 2: how NOT to hunt. I'm gonna tell these guys how to hunt in RDR2 because it's obvious they have no idea. First things first; you don't need cover lotion, just stay downwind of your prey and you can get within fifteen meters of the animal. To figure out if you're downwind or not, activate Eagle Eye, and look for the wavy streamers coming off of Arthur. If they're pointing towards your prey, you're upwind and they will smell you. Remember to crouch while moving, and don't sprint or ride your hose or the animal will startle. Next, always use the tracking feature when you find the prey. If you fill the compendium log for an animal you can learn what it is and the quality of the animal by it's tracks making it much easier to find perfect animal pelts. Next, the proper weapon for the job is key, you don't need to use low damage weapons, just the one appropriate for the job. For deer, use a bow or rifle and aim for the head, neck, or chest for a one shot kill for minimum damage. Third, rotting animals does come into play but it takes 24 ingame hours before the carcass does begin to rot, plenty of time to find a trader and sell it. You should get 3.50 for the carcass and about the same for a perfect pelt, more than enough to cover the costs. To get rid of blood, change into a stored outfit on your horse (this won't get rid of dirt or grease) and brush down the horse.

[@madhatt3r93]

Or just jump in water and swim a little, thatll do the job too 🏊

[@TheAussieBlue]

It wasn't that bad to be honest. The whole medicine thing could become a nuisance but gun jamming wasn't an issue if the player bothered at all to take care of it.

It's better than most of these things.

@@maxvel0city906 I found it hilarious tbh, I liked the sense of out of control chaos it caused

I couldn't complete FC2 because of that.

Not to be that person, but the reason they put mint in medieval hangover cures was to battle the nausea as it’s been proven to settle the stomach!

I like how RDR2 is dealing with the Hunting, it's fun spending ingame days to hunt down my prey. GTA San Andreas was also pretty cool, first Game I ever played that made me fat by eating too much or gave me muscles when working out. KCD is hard first, the fighting is really weird at first, but you can get used to it, then it's actually fun.
